Though Axl and Gaia love each other, the incompatibility of their souls makes future happiness impossible, whereby a living apple tree manifests overnight in their living room.
Being vessels of Bragi and Idunn, Anders and Gaia can't stay apart despite mutual dislike. Being a vessel of Odin, Axl can't help but respond in betrayed godly fashion.
As the righteous are put right, Anders gets an offer he should refuse. Mike finds out his is not the only family with issues, and Axl makes a new and interesting friend.
As Axl's road trip takes a couple of unexpected turns, Mike and Michele take their own roads to the dark side, and Dawn becomes the launch pad for a journey Anders can't see ending well.
